Rajasthan Government Clarifies Ban on Media Entry in Schools Amid Protests

A new administrative order banning the entry of media, photography and videography in government schools in Rajasthan has caused an earthquake in the political corridors. As soon as this order came out, Madan is seeing sharp reactions on social media, and many social organizations are also openly protesting along with the opposition parties. Amid increasing political pressure, now Education Minister Madan Dilawar has given his clarification on this whole controversy. Questions are constantly being raised about the restrictions on the entry of media personnel and video recording in government schools of the state. Former Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot and various citizen forums have called this step of the government a direct attack on the ground realities and transparency. Critics argue that due to such complicated pre-permission conditions, it will be very difficult to expose the basic arrangements and shortcomings of the schools. Amid the growing protest and criticism on social media, there has been a strong demand from the teachers and various organizations against the minister.
